Should I drop Jordan Addison for Pat Freiermuth?

THE DROP / ADD CALL

The right move depends on the weeks you need

Pat Freiermuth is behind by 0.3 FP this week, behind by 2.1 FP across the remaining schedule, and ahead by 0.8 FP in Weeks 15–18. The horizons disagree or are too close for an unconditional drop. Use GamePlan to check your actual starters, bench depth and league playoff weeks. These are player forecast totals, not extra starter points or playoff-odds gains for your team. They share FLEX eligibility, but this move changes your dedicated-position depth.
